What kind of preformance can I expect if I were to play back a normal DVD on a netbook assuming I copied the ISO file to the hard drive and mounted it using something like DeamonTools? I'm not looking for HD/Bluray quality here. I also might want to play back some "TV quality" Divx videos too 720x480 at 2100kps.
I'm still debating if I want to go with a netbook or a full laptop. I need a mobile device that will allow me to surf the net, access email, and maybe remote desktop into other computers/servers via 3G + VPN or wifi. I also need long battery life without having to spend a few hundred dollars extra on batteries.
The only processing intense funcation I would be doing is watching videos while traveling but this function is a primary requirement.
